Motorcycle-riding thieves attempt to rob truck while it's driving.

There's a lot going on here. It looks like the motorcycle speeds up as soon as the one guy jumps off of it, assumedly because of the reduction in weight? Also, that guy essentially just sits down on the road on the road to get off the moving truck? I didn't know you could do that.

There were 3 guys on the bike. When the the last one went to board the truck he upset the apple cart.

Thought maybe the Tail-gunner on the Bread truck they were robbing picked him off!!

Oh yeah! Actually, I think that's the origin of the phrase, "That really chaps my ass!". :)

Crime and stupidity often go hand in hand... I would hope these young Einsteins are realizing that crime doesn't pay.

And also perhaps the origin of "road-rash".

Same stunt, but they pull it off successfully.

Oh how I would have like to see the truck brake-check when the passenger was standing.

Thieves are thieves everywhere!
